I am writing this letter to express my appreciation for the 73rd edition of the journal of Marine Engineering ‘The Prime Mover’. 2. The JME has matured over the years and has emerged as a credible technical forum for the mechanical engineering fraternity of the Navy. The Mechanical Engineering cadets at INA undertake Technical Term Paper study, Minor Project and Major Project in Term VI, VII & VIII respectively. The topics chosen for research work pertain to the latest innovation in the field of Mechanical/Marine Engineering and relevant applications JME Vol. 74 7 RESTRICTED RESTRICTED 3. The technical reports submitted by the cadets are exhaustive as well as technology - intensive. Some of these reports (the best major projects or technical term papers) is proposed to be considered for inclusion in the succeeding editions of JME as regular feature by way of an article. This would not only motivate the young Mechanical Engineering cadets but also ensure required academy grooming towards meeting the desired end state envisaged. 4. A special word of appreciation for Captain S V Shidore, Oi/CMET (Chief Editor of JME) towards establishing two way communications with INA/HoF (ME) and ensuring the availability of credible inputs at ab-initio level on regular basis. The feedback provided by INS Shivaji has gone a long way in preparing the young cadets for further downstream training. I wish the entire team of Shivaji the very best in all feature endeavors Rear Admiral Amit Vikram Principal Indian Naval Academy Naval Academy PO District Kannur, Kerala 670310 **** 1.
